After 6 years with the same company and multiple firings and delayed payments, my salary got axed in half, but the owner got a new Cadillac, so yeah I started to reach out to every hubspot agency out there and thank god I got 2 interviews with double the salary.
I’m scared, happy and sad, I am sure there is a German word for it.
Thank you for this post op this is what the internet was like so many years ago.
Oh I’m so happy to hear this man 😊, fuck that old job and the owner.
Good :) I went to a protest!
What were you protesting?
I was protesting the recent illegal deportations. It was the #handsoff protest so there were plenty of different causes.
Nice, keep up!
Amazing. The sun is shining, it’s weekend, and I’ve just been indoor bouldering and hit 15/16 blacks routes rated V2-V4.
Shouldn’t have tried such an overhang as the last climb striving for that even number.
Pretty shitty. I’ve just been in a really bad mood lately, and kinda felt like shit all day. And I had to close at work. I really hate closing.
That’s quite a username you have there
I finished classes from my master’s, and presented the last test. Still have a final homework to do and prepare my graduation paper. But at last my Sundays are free again.
That sounds like a great day!
That’s great! What’s your masters in?
Thanks, in actuarial sciences. I already have a degree in it but the last year and half of college were during the pandemic and I felt there were some things I didn’t properly learned.
I had to Google what that is. You sound very clever.
I accidentally deleted my root directory then botched the backup of my home directory by failing to copy my config files over then failed to check that before overwriting the SSD with my backups on it. I have learned many hard lessons today.
oof
Weekend flashed all too fast. Still haven’t swiped the dust of my shelves, but it was productive. Wish I could find the time to get few other things done.
Cubs won, had a baked potato bar for dinner. Pretty good day.
Honestly great I got to bike till my legs were sore & saw an amazing sunset
Would’ve been better without all the rain.
Good enough 🙏
Normal day.
Some things made me nervous because I need to make a big decision soon. But I also got this afternoon (CET here) free when I was expecting to have it occupied so that’s nice.
I feel down. I haven’t felt happy in a long while / few months. The danger of depression is there but I believe I’m not at that stage yet.
I’m down because I’ve made no progress at a project for work for a few months now. Everything seems to be breaking and out of my control, it’s a bit tiresome to deal with. Plus the Tariffs have derailed whatever FI plans I had, so I’m pretty much stuck here.
During lunch with my colleagues today some of them expressed that my home country is desirable to live in from a security and convenience perspective (from Singapore). But Singapore is also soul-less and boring, and that irks me. I still want to have the chance to live overseas in a cooler and more relaxed climate, but yeah with the job market being shit and tariffs ruining everything, I might be stuck in Singapore for life.
I drove across the state and back to visit my extended family. I learned I truly don’t belong anywhere. The drive was long, through trump country, with billboards for confederate history month, and my family are maga.
I wish this was satire.
Also traveling as a single parent is exhausting
Very good, played Terraria the whole day with my main partner, had good sex, and ate well.
Why are you asking? Like what does it give you? You don’t know me or mostly anyone here personally, right? Why are you invested/interested in the minutiae of our day-to-day lives? (I’m not saying it’s bad, just very unusual, which is why I’m asking)
Wow, that is alot of information, glad your day was this good, and I’m asking because it feels a bit nice yknow.
Some people could have had a good day but nobody to share it with, or a bad day and nobody to talk to, I’m not gaining anything though 😊
I definitely don’t believe that last statement. People don’t just randomly do things without getting something out of it.
But you actually answered me, what you’re getting out of it is the possibility of making other people feel good/better, the thought of which makes you feel good. That is what you’re getting out of it. You said “it feels a bit nice yknow”.
Why do you say you’re getting something out of it (“feels a bit nice”) and then at the same time say “I’m not gaining anything”? This is a direct contradiction.
Why are you grilling them? It’s better than making others feel bad to make yourself feel better…
Don’t answer if you don’t like the question. Why be a dck about it?
Where am I “grilling them”? I’m just asking about their motivation. Is that wrong?
Oh my bad then, yeah I do gain that, the feeling of making somebody feel better inturn making me feel good is what I gain.
I said I don’t gain anything because in the literal since, I’m not gaining information or anything physical really, but yeah ig I do gain something.
I see, makes sense :) interesting and lovely to hear.
How was your day?
My day was awesome. Went for a walk this morning before a light drizzle rain. Went to the movies with my gf. Then we fixed dinner and watched another movie. Took her home and now studying some programming stuff.
